Drinking a Cosmopolitan

Cape Town is a city defined by spectacular views, and one of the most beautiful comes from your cute balcony. Sit down on the outdoor dining table, glass of wine in hand from the local vineyards, and admire the view of the ocean descending into the blue horizon. Mesmerising and inspiring, it's a view you never tire of seeing.

Alongside the balcony, you get a pretty incredible view from the pool too. You can chill in the water with a view available at all times, and you may never wish to get out.

When you do finally prise yourself out of the water, you'll find a light and airy living space adorned by wooden furnishings of varying tones. It's the type of space that never feels crowded, even when the whole group gather together for a film on the TV or biltong around the table.

If you prefer dining out than eating in, you're expertly placed to explore Cape Town's flourishing culinary scene. The cosy apartment is tucked away in a cool district of the city, yet close to the beachfront bars and the picturesque V&A Waterfront.
